CHINA LASHES OUT AT FREELAND

Protests raging in Hong Kong are threatening to become yet another irritant in Canada's fraught relationship with China.

China's embassy in Canada on Thursday denounced the Canadian government's recent comments on the ongoing protests as "irresponsible" and "erroneous."

That appeared to be a reference to a statement from Foreign Affairs Minister Chrystia Freeland, which expressed Canada's concern over the unrest and described freedom of expression and assembly as the "bedrock" of society in Hong Kong.
